    Saddam Hussein ﺻﺪام ﺣﺴﻴﻦ :Saddam Hussein Abd al-Majid al-Tikriti (/hʊˈseɪn/;[5] Arabic Marshal Ṣaddām Ḥusayn ʿAbd al-Maǧīd al-Tikrītī;[a] 28 April ﻋﺒﺪ اﻟﻤﺠﻴﺪ اﻟﺘﻜﺮﻳﺘﻲ 1937[b] – 30 December 2006) was President of Iraq from 16 July 1979 until 9 Saddam Hussein ﺻﺪام ﺣﺴﻴﻦ April 2003.[10] A leading member of the revolutionary Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party, and later, the Baghdad-based Ba'ath Party and its regional organization the Iraqi Ba'ath Party—which espoused Ba'athism, a mix of Arab nationalism and socialism—Saddam played a key role in the 1968 coup (later referred to as the 17 July Revolution) that brought the party to power inIraq . As vice president under the ailing General Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr, and at a time when many groups were considered capable of overthrowing the government, Saddam created security forces through which he tightly controlled conflicts between the government and the armed forces. In the early 1970s, Saddam nationalized oil and foreign banks leaving the system eventually insolvent mostly due to the Iran–Iraq War, the Gulf War, and UN sanctions.[11] Through the 1970s, Saddam cemented his authority over the apparatus of government as oil money helped Iraq's economy to grow at a rapid pace. Positions of power in the country were mostly filled with Sunni Arabs, a minority that made up only a fifth of the population.[12] Official portrait of Saddam Hussein in Saddam formally rose to power in 1979, although he had already been the de 1979 facto head of Iraq for several years.

CHALLENGES FACED AND FAIR TRIAL PROBLEMS ......... 840 R CONCLUSION................................................... 847 R INTRODUCTION Enemy of the State: The Trial and Execution of Saddam Hussein,1 written by Michael A. Newton2 and Michael P. Scharf,3 is a fascinating, insider’s account of the establishment of the Iraqi High Tribunal (IHT) in Baghdad and its first trial against former Iraqi President Saddam Hus- sein. The book does a fine job exploring the background of the Tribu- nal’s creation, detailing Saddam’s capture by American forces, describing some of the critical documents used at trial against Saddam and other defendants, and providing a flavor of the antics and chaotic tactics employed. The book also makes clear the personal courage pos- sessed by the judges and lawyers involved in the trial, which was tele- vised in Iraq, thereby exposing various individuals and their families to serious security risks, including death. The authors also provide their expert reflections on the difficulties of trying former leaders who insist on attempting to use trials as political platforms for grandstanding rather than addressing the charges against them (as was also seen in the trial of Slobodan Milo˘sevi´c). However, the book falls somewhat short in failing to adequately distinguish some of the antics and chaotic tactics (which may have colored public perceptions) from legitimate fair trial problems—about which numerous questions have been raised by other * Clinical Assistant Professor, New York University Global Affairs Program; Consult- ant, Of Counsel, International Justice Program, Human Rights Watch.
